Meta query count for Buddypress Group Members

    I am trying to work something like this (below) to count all members in a group that have a certain meta value. I am sure there are several ways to do this, but i am new to php and buddypress and can see filter options for groups, or meta queries for all users, but have not figured out how to just run a query for members within a group. I am using this to display summary statistics in the group header.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    $args = array(   
    'meta_query' => array(
        array(
          'key' => ‘action_one_total’,
          'value' => ’88’,
          'compare' => ‘=‘
        ),
    ),
    'count_total' => true
);
}
$users = new WP_User_Query($args);

print_r( $users->get_total() );

    You don’t need the meta_query in your example.

    You can use one of these classes:
    buddypress\bp-core\classes\class-bp-user-query.php
    buddypress\bp-groups\classes\class-bp-group-member-query.php

    Using the former class is more verbose but maybe easier to follow at first: 

    function group_members_counter() {

	$args = array(
		'group_id' 		=> 1,  // bp_get_group_id(), or pass in a group id
		'exclude_admins_mods' 	=> false
	);

	$group_members_result = groups_get_group_members( $args );
	$group_members_ids = array();

	foreach(  $group_members_result['members'] as $member ) {
		$group_members_ids[] = $member->ID;
	}

	echo 'group member ids: ' . implode(", ", $group_members_ids);

	if ( ! empty ( $group_members_ids ) ) {

		$args = array(
			'include' 		=> $group_members_ids,
			'meta_key'		=> 'action_one_total',
			'meta_value'		=> '88',  
			'populate_extras' 	=> false
		);

		$members = new BP_User_Query( $args );

		echo '<br>matching meta count: ' . $members->total_users;

	} else {
		echo 'There are no group members.';

	}

}
add_action( 'bp_ready', 'group_members_counter' );

    Hi everybody

    The method that Shane provided, is really good. I am looking to add a similar feature to disable certain groups. I followed this guide and customized it to make a query that will filter out disabled groups. Everything seems to be working fine except the group count inside the timeline. From where can I find and edit the group count??
